Dev Diary, 15th of January, 2021
🕑 Added 2021-01-15 13:12:40 +0000 UTCThe new hardware is in place and even without the 3090 it is a dream to work with and I couldn't be happier. Posing is much easier, and there's a huge improvement in saving, loading, previewing renders and starting the rendering process. Basically bits and pieces of improvements all over the board.
I still lost quite a bit of time getting everything reinstalled, and I had to rebuild every character in the story from scratch due to old ones were all lacking textures because of optimalizations I did in the early stages of the story, and somehow they got lost when transferring all the files from my old computer. On the good side, I will be moving forward with 4k-8k textures instead of the good old 1k-4k, upping the visual quality greatly.
Also, since I lost all of last weekend due to this, I ran out of poses for this week (I don't have a lot of time to pose during the evenings after my normal job), so I rendered animations for most of the time.
Current render count is at 164 still renders and 2,276 animated frames. The prologue is finished and the intro for 5 of the 8 total different paths (depending on your last choices in chapter 4). This week I'll be focusing on posing and rendering still renders so that I can move forward with the story.
Nothing much else to report this time. Have a great weekend and stay safe.

Recently found this story/game. I have to say its one of the best I have found. I've pretty well played through all the girls and enjoyed their individual stories so far. The only thing I would like to see is the game branches out more. With a little more variation on when events happen and places they occur.

Great to hear, but the visual quality is going to get better? It's great already so can't wait to see what's next!
